When you think of Paris do you picture the Eiffel Tower? The
medieval city of Notre Dame? The elegant boulevards of Baron
Haussmann? The Montmartre of Toulouse- Lautrec? The grandeur of the
Louvre? The Art Nouveau of the Paris Metro? The Grand Projets of
Francois Mitterrand? Or...? Yes, there is just so much beauty to
Paris. In 150 striking images, Paris celebrates the French capital,
from its world-famous landmarks to evocative alleyways and corners
that might surprise you. You may have heard, for instance, about
the Paris catacombs and sewers that you can visit, but did you know
about La Petite Ceinture, a disused 19th century railway line that
circumnavigates the inner city? From the medieval marvels of
Sainte-Chapelle to the 1970s Pompidou Centre to the latest pop-up
beaches beside the Seine, the book explores a great many sides to
the city. In collecting these images of the city today, we come to
understand something of its history - from the executions that took
place at the Place de la Concorde during the Revolution to the Arc
de Triomphe honouring those who served in the Revolutionary and
Napoleonic Wars to the skyscrapers of La Defense. Presented in a
landscape format and with captions explaining the story behind each
entry, Paris is a stunning collection of images celebrating the
world's most romantic city.
